I've seen screen savers with more depth and fewer unnecessary lens flares than Sicario.

Sicario: where physics filed for emotional distress and lost.

If Sicario was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Sicario: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Sicario?

Director clearly thought Sicario was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Hot Take: Sicario's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Just got out of Sicario and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

The cinematography in Sicario is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Rewatched Sicario last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Unpopular opinion: Sicario is the most overrated film of the decade

Honestly, Sicario would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
